Here's a robot learning to flip pancakes. It's hard not to laugh, watching this dumb bot flub flip after flip. But we won't be laughing when we're running for our lives, slowed down by a stomach full of fluffy pancakes.

Also: the robot seen here is dubbed the Barrett WAM 7 DOFs. IS GIZMODO WRITER BRIAN BARRETT A POTENTIALLY MURDEROUS PANCAKE FLIPPING ROBOT? I'll kill him just in case. [Vimeo]
